Search for Tabular Form

Hello,
I am using AE 2.1. I have a tabular form, I want to add a search facility on all fields in the tabular form.
How can I do this?
Thanks

Cosmos,
In the region source attribute of the tabular form, you specify the query that populates the form.
You could create a new HTML region that holds your search criteria page items. You can then add these page items to the WHERE clause of your tabular form. When you submit the page then, the form will only display records that match your criteria. For example:
If you have the following items in your HTML searching region
PX_EMP_NAME
PX_EMP_NO
You could use the following in your tabular form:
SELECT
e.employee_name
, e.employee_num
FROM
employees e
WHERE
UPPER(e.employee_name) LIKE UPPER('%'||NVL(:PX_EMP_NAME,%)||'%')
AND
e.employee_num = :PX_EMP_NO;
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Cj

HTML in SQL for tabular form

I am trying to use HTML directly in SQL statement for tabular form (see SQL below). When the tabular form runs it is not converting the HTML so it displays as this:
Manala<span style="color:blue;">pan</span>
Am I missing something?
select
"PK_ID",
"CODE",
decode(instr(upper(city_name),upper(:P3_SEARCH)),
0, city_name,
substr(city_name,1,
instr(upper(city_name),upper(:P3_SEARCH)) - 1)
|| '<span style="color:blue;">' ||
substr(city_name, instr(upper(city_name),upper(:P3_SEARCH)),
length (:P3_SEARCH))
|| '</span>' ||
substr(city_name, instr(upper(city_name),upper(:P3_SEARCH)) + length(:P3_SEARCH) )) "CITY_NAME",
"STATE_CODE"
from "#OWNER#"."ZIP"
where upper(city_name) like '%' || upper(:P3_SEARCH) || '%'

Right. The HTML is correct but the only way it will display right is when I changed the field attribute to 'Standard Report Column'. Unfortunately, that removes the field from being a text field (input).

Multi Row Update for Tabular Form

1) I'm trying to understand how the built-in MRU works for tabular forms: While running through every row, does it check for changes before issuing an UPDATE or does it blindly UPDATE every row in the current pagination range?
2) If I need to write my own Multi Row Update process for tabular forms, could someone give me some tips on how to do that?
Thanks,
Pavel

1) It stored a checksum for each row that it renders. It calculates the checksum again before processing the rows. The UPDATE statement it issues has a predicate like where old_checksum!=new_checksumSo, it only updates the rows that have at least 1 column value that is different (causing the row checksum to be different)
2) See the howto at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/tabular_form.html

Insert a number of rows for tabular form based on frequency value

Hi,
I have a page with two search items.
Based on the values in the search item, a report is created as tabular form.
The information displayed has a frequency column.
Values for frequency can be Q, Y, M, D
I would like to know if it is possible to to load the form with a standard numbers of row depending on the frequency.
Example: If frequency is Q ,then when i click the go button in the search region, the tabular shoud load with the information displaying 4 rows, even if the information returned is less than 4 rows.
If frequency is Y ,then when i click the go button in the search region, the tabular shoud load with the information displaying 2 rows, even if the information returned is less than 2 rows.
When no data is found, the form should load displaying a number of empty rows depending on the frequency.
Thanks

Following this example:

Wizard for Tabular Form Region

Is it possible to generate a tabular form using a wizard into a new region on an existing page where other regions of various types exist?
I have a page with a region for capturing details of a call. There are other regions on the page that hold information relating to the call, e.g. reasons for the call, requirements of the call, and actions performed relating to the call. These are all one-to-many relationships from the call, with links between each other, i.e. an action can be linked to a particular reason for the call. This all works fine.
What I would like to do is to replace some of the reporting regions (e.g. reasons,requirements and actions) with tabular forms (currently to modify entries in these reporting regions, I use the standard column link functionality to another page containing the maintenance form).
Thanks.

Hi User XY,
tabular forms do not have Page Items. The values you entered in the tabular form are stored in arrays like APEX_APPLICATION.g_f01 to g_f50.
Here are some links you might find helpful: http://www.talkapex.com/2008/07/manually-creating-tabular-form.html

Point is that after selecting any data from drop down table list i want to get the corresponding fields to be populated in column_name attributes.How can i wrote the select query based LOV for the attibute column_name.
I wrote it as 'select column_name d,column_name r from user_col_comments where table_name=:TABLE_NAME Its not working?
Similarly i want same thing to display for comments after matching both table_name and column_name.
Any solution to get rid of those problem will be highly appreciable...

Dynamic LOV FOR TABULAR FORM 6i

Hi,
I have tabular form of two Items(ID,DESC) and I want to Populate LOV for item(ID) every record
and record_Group & SQL statments are stored in DB.
ACTION: when query in POST-QUERY Trigger get for every record in tabular form -- the stored SQL-Statment from table then put it into dynamic record_group and populate the dynamic LOV.
Please advice,
Thanks in Advance.

OK daniel
This form used for get reports
then header get the name of Report (Table-A) (report_ID),(report_desc).
then details for get the Parameters will send to report builder (Table-B) (detail_id),(report_id),(sql_stm).
so parameters may be need for example stock code so this record need to query from stocks table to get stock code and stock name.
next record for item Code so need to query from Items table to get the Item code and Item name
another report for employees so the user enter report code then when query and get in details block employee code and employee name.
so the lov will check if this record have query sql-statment or not if have execute it in the record_group then in lov
then go to the next record if sql_stm is null then no lov in this record and so on.
thanks..

Error when creating breadcrumb for tabular form

Dear all,
I when I tried to create a breadcrumb in tabular form, I got:
1 error has occurred
* This Menu Identification Page already has an associated Menu Option. You must select another page.I found other thread that discussed the same subject and it mentioned about "deleting entries in tabular view" when apex_application_bc_entries showing the corresponding page was included in defined_for_page and url column (my corresponding page was included in those columns also). However I don't know how to delete those entries.
Could anybody advise me?
best regards,
Val

I have resolved the problem by copying the page I want to link to another page in the app without breadcrumbs, then added the breadcrumb region,
a breadcrumb entry. I then pointed the 'home' page to the new page and was able to navigate to the new page and back to the home page.

Popup window for tabular form row edition

To edit existing or new rows in a tabular form (page 1), I would like to open a popup window (page 2) with fields mirroring original tabular form fields. So, some basic data can be viewed/typed in the tabular form and the whole of the record data are viewed/typed on a separate popup form.
On opening popup, I pass a tabular form's current line number (filled with up to three zeros on the left).
When the user clicks on OK button on popup page, data will be put to the corresponding tabular form row. That should allow me to get /set tab form data from popup using following syntax:
opener.document.getElementById('f04_' + line).value
However, when I call data-initialization javascript function on onload of the popup form, popup fields to be filled are not rendered yet. At which point (and how) could I call this javascript initialization function?
Another question. With Firebug Inspector, I see that right in front of each tab form data tag, there is a "label" tag with the name of the column as it was defined in report attributes. As long as I have a information, opener.document.getElementById, what HTML/Javascript syntax should I use to get to this label tag?
Igor

OK, the first part of question is OK now. Simply, I was putting a javascript code calling my initialization predure in the HTML Body Attribute section of the page, instead of simply writing there: onload="initFunction();"
The second one stands still: once I have a tabular form's element id like f20_0003, how can I get to the symbolic name, e.g., "FIRST_NAME", that is in the label tag in the same table cell?

No Data returned for tabular form APEX 4

Hi,
I have a page that uses a tabular form, however it is not showing me any data. If I click the add row button and enter some details and press submit, the data is saved to the database but the page is refreshed and still shows me no data. I don't however get a No Data Found message.
If I create a region on the same page based on a sql report, that returns the data I have added through the tabular form.
Any ideas
Cheers
Paul

My previous post appears to be incorrect as neither pages are now returning data!!!!
So I started again and this is what I have done.
1) Run the page and get no data. The SQL statement on the page is
select
"ID",
"ID" ID_DISPLAY,
"REFERRAL_ID",
"REASON",
"CREATED_BY",
"CREATED_ON",
"UPDATED_BY",
"UPDATED_ON"
from "#OWNER#"."REFERRAL_REASON"
where referral_id = :P82_REFERRAL_ID
2) Checked the wwv_flow_activity_log and can see that the number of rows returned is correct (12 in this case)
3) Traced the page and looked at the trace file which has the following statement
select NULL "CHECK$01",
NULL "ID",
NULL "ID_DISPLAY",
to_number(123) "REFERRAL_ID",
NULL "REASON",
NULL "CREATED_BY",
NULL "CREATED_ON",
NULL "UPDATED_BY",
NULL "UPDATED_ON",
NULL "ROWID"
from dual
union all
select "CHECK$01" "CHECK$01",
"ID" "ID",
"ID_DISPLAY" "ID_DISPLAY",
"REFERRAL_ID" "REFERRAL_ID",
"REASON" "REASON",
"CREATED_BY" "CREATED_BY",
"CREATED_ON" "CREATED_ON",
"UPDATED_BY" "UPDATED_BY",
"UPDATED_ON" "UPDATED_ON",
"ROWID" "ROWID"
from (select NULL "CHECK$01",
"ID" "ID",
"ID_DISPLAY" "ID_DISPLAY",
"REFERRAL_ID" "REFERRAL_ID",
"REASON" "REASON",
"CREATED_BY" "CREATED_BY",
"CREATED_ON" "CREATED_ON",
"UPDATED_BY" "UPDATED_BY",
"UPDATED_ON" "UPDATED_ON",
"ROWID" "ROWID"
from (select "ID",
"ID" ID_DISPLAY,
"REFERRAL_ID",
"REASON",
"CREATED_BY",
"CREATED_ON",
"UPDATED_BY",
"UPDATED_ON"
from "IMPULSE"."REFERRAL_REASON") apex$_rpt_src
order by 1)
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
Parse 4 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
Execute 4 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
Fetch 16 0.00 0.00 0 24 0 12
total 24 0.00 0.00 0 24 0 12
4) Amended the page to remove the where clause
5) Amended the page to removed the process that adds 5 empty rows
6) Run the page and still get no rows
7) Checked the wwv_flow_activity_log and can see that the number of rows returned is correct (12 in this case)
8) Log out of application and log back in
9) Run the page and get 500 rows
10) Checked the wwv_flow_activity_log and can see that the number of rows returned is correct (500 in this case)
11) Added the where clause back in to the SQL statement and rerun the page and get the correct numer of rows (12 in this case)
12) Log out of application and log back in
13) Run the page and get no rows!!!!!!!
14) Checked the wwv_flow_activity_log and can see that the number of rows returned is correct (12 in this case)
So I can only conclude that whilst the data is being retrieved from the database it is not being displayed on the screen. So what would be stopping the data from being displayed?
Regards
Paul

Instead of Trigger for tabular form

I have a tabular layout on a form that returns data from a database view. Based on user interaction I would like to update the underlying view records that are returned by a query in the form using an INSTEAD OF trigger. I have my trigger working, however I can only get it to update the first record of the tabular layout item on the form. I realize that INSTEAD OF triggers are row level triggers, but is there a way to get this trigger to fire for multiple records? I've written a simple update statement in the form that updates the view: update newborn.nb_ltfu_positive_v
set export_dt = sysdate
where barcode = :nb_ltfu_positive_v.barcode;
and my INSTEAD OF trigger looks like this: if :old.export_dt <> :new.export_dt then
update nbpat set export_dt = sysdate
where spec = :old.spec;
end if;
if :old.export_dt <> :new.export_dt then
update nbhear_audiotest set export_dt = sysdate
where barcode = :old.barcode;
end if;
Do I need to do some looping in the trigger?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

No you cannot do any looping in the database trigger. The database trigger will for every record which is involved in an UPDATE issued againt the view.
The problem is your code inside the form. In general you do not issue "manual" update against a table/view in forms, but let forms do so. So, if you want to update a record in a tabular block in forms you would just assign the new value to the forms-item, such as
:BLOCK.EXPORT_DT:=SYSDATE;in your example. This code marks the "active" reocrd in the block as "to be updated" in the next transactions, mean when the user presses "Save". If you want to update multiple records in forms, this is either done when the user navigates between different record and then does some changes in the block-fields, or if you want to do it "programmatical", by looping over the block, something like:
FIRST_RECORD;
LOOP
EXIT WHEN :SYSTEM.RECORD_STATUS ='NEW';
-- do some stuff on the current record, exampel code
:BLOCK.EXPORT_DT:=SYSDATE;
EXIT WHEN :SYSTEM.LAST_RECORD='TRUE';
NEXT_RECORD;
END LOOP;hope this helps

Searching for script form name for tcode j1ip

dear friends,
I have to change one code in form.but i am unable to find the form name that is used in j1ip tcode.
can you tell me the way to find it out?is there any table in which if i will enter tcode or program name it will give the form name.
regards
ansuman

TNAPR is one table, where ur driver program and form names are mapped to the output types, but this is not applicable only when output is called through message control (TCODE -NACE).
but there is one structure RSTXC, in which u get ur form name in TDFORM.
this is updated in write_form FM so in debugging u can mark a "breakpoint at fm" on write_form and hit execute and when u reach inside the fm u can check this structure.
i dont think u'll get a table where u'll get this info directly.

Search criteria on manually created tabular form

Hi All,
Apex v4.0
DB 11g
In a page I have created one manually tabular form using collection .
My requirement is :- Search criteria on the form based on 3 column field of that form.
I tried to use LIKE, EQUAL in the select statement of the query. BUT search option is not working .
When I tried to search ,it doesn't return anything.
But its working on wizard base TF.
I am not sure this one option for search criteria on the manually created TF.
Kindly suggest any other way we can achieve it.
Thanks in Advance !!!
Regards,
Amu

Remember that the values on an apex page is only accessible once you submit your page.
And for tabular forms the values needs to be processed to the apex collections after you submit.
For better understanding what happens inside the collections I suggest that you always make a conditional report with
select * from apex_collectionsand Condition
Where Value of item in expression1 = Expression2
Expression1
DEBUGExpression2
YESThis way you can show the content of your collections easily by just enabling debug.

Set value for user input in tabular form

Hello all
I have a tabular form wherein I want to set the length of values a user an enter into certain columns.
For an example, column1 should only allow users to input a 5 digit number and no more. Column2 should only allow 6 digits and so on.
Is this something that can be done? and if so, how?
Thank you for any help -Trey

Hi Trey,
APEX doesn't support that out of the box, it always creates a HTML input item with a maxlength=2000. But have a look at the ApexLib Framework which supports a length property for tabular from fields. See http://www.inside-oracle-apex.com/2007/02/restrict-input-length-for-tabular-form.html and http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=44394:54 for details.
